This week on #SundayGunday, we’re checking out an excellent hunting round from Fiocchi: Hyperformance Hunt. Designed for intense terminal performance at standard to long hunting distances, the Hyperformance Hunt line comes loaded with either a Hornady SST Polymer Boat-Tail bullet, a Swift Scirocco Boat-Tail Spitzer, or a Barnes TTSX Polymer Tipped Copper HollowPoint. The Hornady SST, short for Super Shock Tip, is designed to deliver shock on impact while expanding quickly, especially at higher velocities. Meanwhile, the Swift Scirocco focuses on long range efficiency while maintaining short-range punch. At the lower velocities the bullet will reach at long range, the Scirocco produces positive expansion, but at close range still maintains a controlled level of expansion with a high weight retention. This makes it a true, all around performer. Finally, the legendary TTSX delivers all-copper monolithic toughness, with the added ballistic benefit of a polymer tip.

Hyperformance Hunt Cartridge

Combined with consistent powder, and reliable primers, and these three offerings make Fiocchi’s Hyperformance Hunt a great choice across the gamut of hunting scenarios, with chamberings ranging from.300 Blackout, to the legendary .30-06 Springfield. We found Hyperformance Hunt to average MOA accuracy out of multiple platforms, with excellent expansion to boot firing the TTSX in 7mm PRC.
